You can buy knotted grass rings in the market and use them instead of making them as instructed. You can consult an expert who performs the homams on a regular basis, to get more first hand knowledge.

namaste Guruji, So Mahaganapathi is "Om Shreem Hreem kleem gloum Gam Ganapataye vara varada Sarva Janam me vashamaanaya Swaha" ? I

Humble Pranaams Krishnaji! After reading about Maa Pratyangira on this site & whereever possible, I was able to understand that Maha Pratyangira Devi is the source form of all the other forms like Pratyangira, Narayani Pratyangira, Vipreet Pratyangira and so on as various forms of Maa. But then I came across Maha Vipreet Pratyangira. Where does that form come from? Kindly clear this doubt.

Humble Pranaams to you Krishnaji! Is just reading this Stotram on a daily basis allowed? I did it by chance for 2 nights - First as it appeared in the comment section & then this article the next night. I then stopped in thinking about the warning mentioned at the top. Thought it better to ask you before doing it. It is so beautiful, the way the attributed of Maa Pratyangira is explained, it just fills you with wonderment! But I want to be sure it is allowed. Just reading & absolutely no uchcharan.Is it allowed?

The shatchakra japam sadhana is a very advanced sadhana and is an authentic practice perscribed by tantra. However it is a very advanced practice. Your power of visualization must be very strong. Not only must you have gained the ability to internally view each chakra but you must be able to see the Sanskrit bijas on each petal. Only then can you perform this sadhana. Instead it is best to meditate on the chakra associated with the devata while chanting. For example, if you are doing Sri Mahaganapati, start with visualizing a red light at muladhara chakra. In time the chakra will emerge from the light and you'll see it moving. This is the beginning. After some time with this you can begin shatchakra japam. Jai Ambe Jai Gurudev

It is best to put asside whatever you've read about the fruits of sadhana. Seeking results is like viewing God as a business man who sells you fruit based on some sort of payment. Here in this life everything we do is seva and seva only. Your mantra that your guru gave you is a prayer. You chant because you love God. You seek only to dissolve into God. Nothing else! Please continue with your upasana.

Krishna is "mantramaharnavaha" English translation available . If available which version is best and where can i get it (online)?

My dear brother Lorran. I am indebted to you, my Guru Sri Santosh and my dear friend and brother Sri Krishnaji. I have become overwhelmed by the grace of my entire guru parampara and by the instructions of Sri Guruji Prakashanandanatha I have been given Sri Raja Matangisvari mantra. I have given Her my entire heart and Her grace consumes me! She floods me with blue light during my upasana. The secrets of Her manifest reality pour down upon me like jewels from the deepest treasure hall of Lalitambika. I cry everyday with intoxicating awe of Her beauty during dhyana meditation. I have read the above stotra and your comment today and would like to share with everyone what I wrote today to account on Facebook. This is just the surface of what she's shared with me because as you know, it is no easy thing to put into words what She shares with us. I hope you return dear brother. We need you. Jai Ambe Jai Gurudev. By the grace of my divine lover Sri Raja Matangisvari I will reveal a secret. I will try to simplify things as much as possible because our holy scriptures only hint at the nature of the manifest reality. Our tantras and other philosophical texts are way too complicated for most people. What exactly is the nature of creation? Why is the supreme Goddess Lalitambika called the one who plays, and what exactly is She playing? I will tell you the truth. She plays music. All of creation is a symphony. I will also settle another debate I once entertained, namely, do we have free will? Yes, we all absolutely have free will. But there is a symphony that moves everything and we all respond to the music diffently. This is our free will, to move through the web of music freely, but influenced by our samskaras and the endless karmas that affect us for good or bad. Even the effect of the planets are like scores of music that come upon us with their own song. From the supreme Goddess Lalitambika comes every type of music. But the theme of the music is the same, that we all deeply desire to witness the infinite beauty of our Divine Mother. Some choose to hear a love song. Others choose to hear a violent chorus of anger. But the root of all music is the same, a desire to melt into the music of God. We absolutely hate the fact that some songs don't get us to Her, even if we don't know Her. Our consciousness is either limited or through mantra sadhana it becomes unbound and infinite. Our nature is yoga and this is the law of all things. Now why do devotees of Sri Raja Matangisvari have so much power? Because we know exactly what I'm telling you to be true! We know exactly how to play a song that causes an effect that we desire. Mother has given us the instrument to play the music that moves all things towards Lalitambika. How do we get this power? Easy... We are madly in love with Devi. Consumed by her intoxicating beauty. Our love is so strong that Lalita calls us the most beloved. Lalitambika knows that when one has given their entire heart to Sri Raja Matangisvari there can only be beauty that comes from everything we do or say. Our words become mantra. Our music moves the very threads of creation. Our beauty has gravity. For this all secrets are revealed to us. So now you know the truth. It is love and beauty that moves all things. There is only one song that truly gets us to Devi, the mantra that comes from a God realized Guru. Aum and Aim in living symphony. We are all loving awareness, Shiva dancing to the music of Shakti. A love story. Harih Om Sri Gurubhyo Namah.
